CryoDerm® Heat Pain Relieving Products - Analgesics - Massage Supplies

I've always loved working with menthol and camphor but had never tried capsaicin before. Being familiar with its benefits, I was anxious to use this. As another said, a little bit goes a long way. Do NOT over apply, as I accidentally did on my neck. It BURNS! I took my dog for a walk just after that and it became intolerable, due to the sun or sweating, I don't know which. I just know that I had to quickly shower it off. Consider yourself warned. Use sparingly.

I purchased 4 different heat products to compare them: Sombra Warm Therapy, CryoDerm Heat, Prossage Heat and Soothing Touch Herbal Heat. Sombra won, hands down, for overall use. It warmed up quickly, has a nice scent, and kept the heat for a reasonable time. CryoDerm came in a fast second. The heat held longer than Sombra, and felt deeper, but the scent tends more towards the mediciney side. I found it also heated up hours after I applied it when damp heat was applied to the area. I didn’t mind that effect, but was glad to know it could happen. Prossage was my third choice. It held heat longer than Sombra, and was fairly comparable to CryoDerm, but the scent is horrible. I might use this on myself (just to avoid throwing product out), but not on my clients. I had high hopes for Soothing Touch as it seems to rely more on essential oils than on camphor and menthol. It has a lovely scent, but the effects weren’t as deep or as long lasting as the other products. Also, it says on the bottle “a warming gel for pre-sports warm up”. Perhaps this would be perfect for sports massage, but I’m not sure it’s what I would use for deeper tissue issues.

I love this pain relieving lotion, it works great. I use just a bit of it and very slowly the heat starts to work, taking any ache or sore muscle pain away. I wish it was cheaper.

Great product! Clients love the warm feeling on sore muscles.

Great product, I use it on my clients, and they think it's awesome. As well as I do too.
